An issue with certain Zoom integrations that use “External Protocol Request” from a browser as opposed to Single Sign On or launching from a [zoom.us](http://zoom.us) web page, is that the video seemingly can’t be enabled automatically. The camera is forced to be off until it is turned on. Any way around this restriction with future developments?
